New on Netflix in May 2026: all the latest movies and shows streaming this month

This list of everything streaming on Netflix in May 2026 is here to help you keep track of all the new shows and movies that are coming to the streamer.

The biggest launch this month is The Boroughs – a new supernatural thriller from the team behind Stranger Things. Netflix will be expecting big things from this one, and we’re very intrigued to find out more. But that’s not all, as you can see in our recommendations below. A quick note: as it’s only the middle of April, we don’t have the full list of titles yet, and some are still to be confirmed. Check back in the coming weeks as we’ll update this with more information as we get it.
